How stuff has gone downhill so much... I mean A Four-n-Twenty yrs ago came in a foil tray, with fresh tasty pastry & full of MEAT... NOW, it's a teeth-breakin, burnt bottomed, "container", half full of some brown slop!.. AND the Fanta!!... Remember when Fanta came in a GLASS bottle (with the rings around it) AND had a real orange "zing" to it? Todays Fanta has NO resemblance to the original!... COKE's also changed, has no "bite" to it whatsoever anymore.
Another that comes to mind is the Western Wagon wheel... Remember when they were about 6inches in diameter and 3/4 of an inch thick (and were 10c)...you struggled to eat a whole one?.. Check the size now!
The new Maccas buns are anothery... A quarterpounder was "bland" enough before, try one nowadays...WHAT did they do to the damn buns??
Choc coated icecreams!.. Remember the original Heart, or even the good old Two-in-One?.. The absolute smoothest vanilla icecream & Chocolate that TASTED like chocolate!....

Remember when Fanta was made buy Tarax not coke and it was Adms pies that came in the foil tray not the four-n-twentys. Sunnt boys are still around but thtey are $1.00. Frys bars now there was a choco bar and the good old snot block (vanilla slice) they were 3" thick and full of real cream and you dam near choked on the icing sugar. Ahh the good old days. Am i showing my age now.
